GROUNDWATER INVESTIGATION STEERING TEAM REPORT
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
A multi-media Consent Order (GWR-2001-019) was entered into between the West Virginia Department of Environmental Protection (WVDEP), the West Virginia Department of Health and Human Resources-Bureau for Public Health (WVDHHRBPH) and DuPont on November 14th, 2001.
The Consent Order identified a series of requirements to be performed by the Parties (WVDEP, WVDHHR-BPH, and DuPont) Jn order to determine whether there has been any impact on human health and the environment as a result of releases of ammonium perfluorooctanoate (C-8), CAS Number 3815.26-1, to the environment from DuPont operations at the Washington Works main plant and three associated landfills (Local, Dry Run, and Letart). C-8 is a material used by DuPont in its fluoroproducts manufacturing process at its Washington Works Facility's located in Washington, Wood County, West Virginia. C-8 has not been identified as a hazardous substance, hazardous waste, or otherwise specifically regulated under West Virginia or federal statute or regulation.
In accordance with Attachment A of the Consent Order, three tasks were to be performed by DuPont and evaluated by the Groundwater Investigation Steering Team (GIST). The GIST used a phased approach towards meeting these requirements.
TASK A:
Task A required Dupont to conduct a distance-phased public water supply service survey along the Ohio River on both the West Virginia and Ohio sides of the river. Subsequent to the Task A requirement, a one-mile (and possibly a two- and three-mile) radial distance of the Washington Works Facility and the Local, Letart, and Dry Run Landfills. The phased approach to the water and groundwater well use survey and sampling was intended to allow the GIST to focus efforts along potential C-8 impact transport pathways and eventually cease activities in directions where impacts were not present or where there were low concentrations.

WEST VIRGINIA PUBLIC WATER SUPPLY SYSTEMS:
Conclusions:
Ten public water supply systems along the Ohio River at various points up and downstream from the Washington Works Facility and Letart Landfill were sampled for C-8.
No public water supply production wells in West Virginia were found to exceed the drinking water screening level of 150 ug/L The highest concentration detected was 1.87 ug/l.
The widespread distribution and low concentrations of C-8 indicate that the primary migration pathways to the public water supplies are air emissions from the Washington Works Facility and pumping-induced infiltration from the Ohio River, which receives C-8 from the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPD6S) outfalls at the Washington Works Facility and the Letart
Landfill.
Recommendations:
Continued quarterly sampling at the Lubeck Public Service District (PSD), DuPont Washington Works Facility, and General Electric public water systems for two years is recommended by the GIST. Also, annual sampling of the Blennerhassett Island, reason County PSD, and the Racine Lock and Dam Public Water System for two years is advised. Subsequently, the frequency of the sampling should then be re-evaluated.
OHIO PUBLIC WATER SUPPLY SYSTEMS;
Conclusions:
Six public water supply production wells along the Ohio River at various points up and downstream from the Washington Works Facility and the Letart Landfill were sampled for C-8.
No public water supply production wells in Ohio were found to exceed the C-8 drinking water screening level of 150 ug/l. The highest concentration detected was 8.58 Mg/l.
The widespread distribution and the low concentrations of C-8 indicate that the primary migration pathways to the public water supplies are air emissions from the Washington Works Facility and pumping-induced infiltration from the Ohio River, which receives C-8 from NPDES outfalls at the Washington Works Facility and Letart Landfill.

Continued quarterly sampling of the Little Hocking Water Association Public Water System for two years is recommended by the GIST. Also, annual sampling of the Tuppers Plains-Chester Water District Public Water System for two years is advised. Subsequently, the frequency of the sampling should then
be re-evaluated.
TASK B:
Task B required the development and implementation of a monitoring plan that would determine the extent and presence of C-8 in drinking water, groundwater, and surface water in and around the Washington Works Facility and the three landfills, and to provide a compilation of all available groundwater/surface water monitoring and hydrogeologic characterization data for each facility.
OHIO RIVER SURFACE WATER SAMPLING:
Conclusions:
Twelve sampling locations in the Ohio River at points up to 28.6 mites upstream of the Washington Works Facility and downstream to the Letart Landfill were sampled for C-8.
No samples collected from the Ohio River were found to exceed the C-8 drinking water screening level of 150 ug/l. The highest concentration detected was 1.04 ug/l.
Recommendations:
No additional river sampling is recommended.
SURFACE WATER AND OROUNDWATER MONITORING:
This task included monitoring of the surface water and groundwater at the Washington Works Facility and the three landfills for four consecutive monthly events, followed by quarterly sampling thereafter.
DRY RUN LANDFILL:
Conclusions:
C-8 is believed to be migrating, via groundwater and surface water, from the C8-containing waste that has been disposed of within the landfill.
Division of Water and Waste Management
Final C-8 GiST Report

_____gage7
Groundwater flow is toward the west and toward the Dry Run valley at this site.
C-8 concentrations measured within the one-mile radius of the site show that some off-site migration of C-8 may have occurred.
The Dry Run Landfill is located within eight miles of the Washington Works Facility. The transport of C-8 via air emissions from the plant could potentially be the source of the very low concentrations of C-8 detected within the one-mile radius sampling area.
There are no known complete exposure pathways for human receptors that exceed the C-8 drinking water screening level of 150 ug/l.
Recommendations:
Surface water and groundwater monitoring should continue at this site. The groundwater sampling should continue to be quarterly, while the outfall sampling can be either monthly or quarterly, as required by the site's NPDE8 permit.
The C-8 concentrations in wells DRMW-13A and DRMW-13A should be monitored, as these wells appear to be the most vulnerable (down-gradient portion of the C-8 plume).
The C-8 concentrations at the Dry Run leachate discharge location should be
monitored.
LETART LANDFILL:
Conclusions:
C-8 is believed to be migrating via surface water transport from the C'8 containing waste that has been disposed of within the landfill.
Groundwater flow in the A Zone, D-E Zones, C Zone, and F Zone at the Letart Landfill is towards the Ohio River, and is away from the private water supplies in this area. Groundwater flow in the P Zone (the deepest zone) is generally believed to be towards the Ohio River and away from the private water supplies in this area; however, there may be a groundwater flow divide on the upper and northwestern side of the landfill.
The annual C-8 loading from groundwater to the Ohio River indicates a very low concentration in the river from the landfill, and this is supported by the very low concentrations of C-8 in the Ohio River downstream of the landfill. It is possible, however, that this loading is contributing to the presence of low C-8 concentrations in some of the down river community water systems.
Air emissions are not a viable migration pathway from the landfill because there

are no air emissions at the Letart Landfill.
There are three complete exposure pathways for human receptors that exceed the CATT-established C-8 drinking water screening level of 150 ug/l. These are: contact with either surface water runoff (at the Cap Runoff location), leachate discharged to surface water at the toe of the Letart Landfill, and the
resulting wet-weather stream that discharges into the Ohio River. However, these exposure routes are limited because of the remote location of the landfill, the very steep terrain, and the wet-weather nature of the stream. In addition, the fencing around the site limits trespasser access to the area, and the use of health and safety plans, standing operating procedures, and personal protective
equipment also limits C-8 exposure for the on-site workers.
. Recommendations:
Surface water and groundwater monitoring should continue at this sit. The groundwater sampling should continue to be quarterly, while the outfall sampling can be either monthly or quarterly, as required by the site's NPDES permit.
All three of the Zone A groundwater monitoring wells (LMW'1, LMW-7, and LMW-8) should be monitored for C-8 concentrations and groundwater flow
direction.
Zone F groundwater wells LMW-2A and LMW-12 should be monitored for C-8 concentrations and groundwater flow direction.
LOCAL LANDFILL:
Conclusions:
C-8 is believed to be migrating via surface water transport from the C-8 containing waste that has been disposed of within the landfill.
Groundwater flow from the Local Landfill is toward the northwest at this site and toward the Ohio River valley. Flow is also towards the Washington Works Facility.
C-8 detected within the one- and two-mile radius sampling areas near the Washington Works Facility and Local Landfill is likely to have been transported from the plant via air emissions.
There are no known complete exposure pathways for human receptors that exceed the C-8 Assessment of Toxicity Team (CATT)-established C-8 drinking water screening level of 150 ug/l.
Recommendations:
Division of Water and Waste Management
Final C-8 GIST Report
page 9
Surface water and groundwater monitoring should continue at this site. The groundwater sampling should continue to be semi-annually, while the outfall sampling can be either monthly or quarterly, as required by the site's NPDES
permit.
Three locations at the Local Landfill should be monitored: Outlet 101, Outlet LM1, and well LLMW-4.
WASHINGTON WORKS FACILITY:
Conclusions:
The on-site Solid Waste Management Units (SWMUs) are believed to be the primary source of C-8 migration into the groundwater.
Air deposition of C-8 onto the ground surface and its subsequent migration into the groundwater may also have occurred.
No off-site migration of the groundwater is occurring, as long as DuPont's Western Well Field continues pumping.
Some limited groundwater may migrate off-site in the northwest corner of the DuPont facility in response to the GE plant pumping their wells #3 and #4.
Air emissions are believed to be the primary migration pathway of C-8 from the Washington Works Facility to adjacent areas in Ohio.
Air emissions of C-8 from the Washington Works Facility are believed to be the source of C-8 detected in areas of West Virginia located adjacent to the facility and the Local Landfill.
Air emissions of C-8 and the discharge of C-8 through the outfalls are believed to be the migration pathways of C-8 from the facility to the Ohio River, and-- most likely--from the river to the public water supplies located downstream.
Air emissions of C-8 from the plant are believed to be the source for C-8 along the Ohio River upstream of the plant.
There are no known complete exposure pathways for human receptors that exceed the CATT-established C-8 drinking water screening level of 150 ug/( at the Washington Works Facility.
Recommendations:
Surface water and groundwater monitoring should continue at this site. The groundwater sampling should continue to be quarterly, while the outfall sampling can be either monthly or quarterly, as required by the site's NPDES permit.
Division of Water and Waste Management

The following groundwater monitoring weds and outfalls require further
monitoring at the Washington Works Facility: R04-MW02, P04-MW-2, Q04MW02. V05-PW01, N04-MW-01, and Outfall 005.
It is important that DuPont further investigates the high concentrations of C-8 in these wells, which are located at the Washington Works Facility adjacent to the Ohio River. DuPont has stated (in their February 2003 Summary Report) that C-8 is confined to a perched aquifer and that the deeper aquifer contains no C-8.
TASKC:
Task C required the determination of the vertical and horizontal extent of any and all C-8 impacted groundwater exceeding 1 pg/l. This task also included an assessment of C-8 impacted surface water and/or groundwater at the Letart Landfill and its impact on the Ohio River and nearby public water systems along the river.
GROUNDWAT6R MODELING;
Groundwater modeling of the Washington Works Facility and surrounding area was conducted to evaluate the groundwater flow pathways and determine the potential of C-8 migration to off-site receptors.
Conclusions:
The Ohio River creates a groundwater divide in the Pleistocene alluvium under the river. As a result of production-well pumping at the Dupont Washington Works Facility and the neighboring GE facility, the C-8-impacted groundwater from the Washington Works Facility is not being drawn into either the Lubeck PSD municipal well field in West Virginia or the Little Hocking Water Association well field in Ohio. Some limited groundwater may migrate off-site in the northwest corner of the DuPont facility in response to GE pumping wells #3 and 4. Sources of C-8, for the Lubeck PSD and the Little Hocking Water Association, are coming from the Ohio River and dispersion by air.
Recommendation:
The URS Diamond model should be accepted as representing real-world conditions in determining groundwater flow and contaminant transport.

WEST VIRGINIA PRIVATE WATER SUPPLY SOURCES
Pursuant to Attachment A of the Consent Order, the Groundwater Use and Well Survey involved evaluating C-8 in groundwater initially within a one-mile radius from the Washington Works Facility and the three landfills (Local, Letart, and Dry Run) by sampling water from wells, cisterns, and springs. The area was expanded to a two-mile radius at the Washington Works Facility and the Local Landfill based on the initial results obtained from the one-mile radius survey and sampling.
Between March 2002 and October 2002, DuPont's third-party contractor. Potesta Associates, Inc., performed a door-to-door well survey and collected samples following protocols established by the multi-media consent order. Representatives from the WVDEP and the Wood County Health Department accompanied Potesta Associates, Inc. personnel during the initial door-to-door survey.
WASHINGTON WORKS FACILITY AND LOCAL LANDFILL:
In April 2002, DuPont submitted a report to the GIST documenting the well survey and C-8 sample results within a one-mile radial distance around the DuPont Washington Works Facility and the Local Landfill. Because of the proximity of the Local Landfill to the DuPont Washington Works Facility, groundwater wells located within the combined one-mite radius (of both sites) in West Virginia were sampled. A total of 44 samples were collected from drinking water wells, non-drinking water wells, unused wells, springs, and cisterns.
The C-8 concentration from drinking water wells ranged from 0.328 ug/l to 2.8 ug/l. The highest concentration of C-8 from the category of non-drinking water wells and unused wells was 14.3 ug/L C-8 was detected in all wells, springs, and cisterns sampled within the one-mile radius. A total of two samples collected in the one-mile radius had concentrations of C-8 abovelO ug/1. Because of the levels found in the onemile radius of the Washington Works Facility and the Local Landfill, the private water supply sources survey was extended by the GIST to a two-mile radius. In addition, private and industrial water supplies used for drinking water were sampled on a monthly basis until the CATT drinking water screening concentration of 150 ug/l was developed.
The private water supply sources survey and C--8 sampling results within the one- to two-mile radius of the DuPont Washington Works Facility and the local landfill were submitted on August 2002 to the GIST. A total of 65 samples were collected and analyzed for C-8 including drinking water wells. The C-8 concentrations measured in drinking water wells ranged from non-detect (<0.010 ug/() to 0.889 ug/l. The highest concentration of C-8 from non-drinking water wells or unused wells was 1.57 ug/l. A spring sample, used for drinking water, had a concentration of 1.8 ug/I. Due to measured concentrations of C-8 in the two-mile radius indicating a decreasing trend in distance from the Washington Works Facility, the GIST determined that additional samples beyond the two-mile radius were not necessary.

P_age 14
In summary, C-8 was detected in 100% and 79% of the private water supply sources sampled in the one- and two-mile areas respectively. The concentrations of C-8 were lower in the two-mile radius area as compared to the one-mile radius. No
private water supply sources in the one- or two-mile radius area exceeded the CATT-established C-8 drinking water screening level of 150 ug/l, The widespread
distribution of C-8 in private water supply sources, combined with the lack of groundwater flow to this area from the Washington Works Facility and the Local landfill facilities, indicates that air emissions may be the primary migration pathway of C-8 from
the facility to adjacent areas in West Virginia.
RECOMMENOATIONS:
Under the Consent Order, a significant number of private water supply samples have been collected that document the extent and current concentrations of C-8 in groundwater within the one- and two-mile radial areas. Most locations have been sampled at least once. It is unknown whether the concentrations detected in groundwater are the result of historic air deposition or result of air deposition in the last couple of years. Therefore, the GIST recommends that DuPont collect additional samples from the following selective locations to evaluate the current trend of C-8 concentrations in private water sources. Additional samples should be collected from the following sample locations, with the owner's permission:
Drinking water wells with detected levels of C-8, Drinking water springs with detected levels of C-8, Non-drinking water wells with detected levels of C-8, Springs and cisterns with detected levels of C-8, and Wells or springs used for cattle above 5 ug/l (total 1).
The GIST recommends selecting ten of these locations, with at least one or more from each category, for quarterly sampling for one year. Subsequently, the frequency of the sampling should then be re-evaluated.
LETART LANDFILL:
In April 2002. DuPont submitted a report to the GIST documenting the well
survey and C-8 sampling results within the one-mile radial area around Letart Landfill. A total of 30 samples were collected from drinking water wells, non-drinking water wells, unused wells, springs, and cisterns. The C-8 concentration from drinking water wells ranged from non-detect (<0.01 ug/l) to 0.139 ug/l. The highest concentration of C-8
from the category of non-drinking water wells was 0.636 ug/l, from Brinker Run, which was named for sampling purposes" Route 33 Unnamed Stream." This concentration may be the result of surface water infiltration from the Letart Landfill into Brinker Run. Due to the low C-8 concentrations found at the Letart Landfill, and in the private water supply sources the survey was not extended by the GIST to a two-mile radial area.
, Ijl^
Division of Water and Waste Management
Final C-8 GIST Report
page 15
.
In summary, C-8 was detected in 6% of the private water supply sources sampled in the one-mile radial area. No private water supply sources samples exceeded the CATT-established C-8 drinking water screening level of 150 ug/l.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
Under the Consent Order, a significant number of private water supply samples were collected that document the extent and current concentrations of C-8 in private water supplies within a one-mile radius of the Letart Landfill.
Each location was sampled at least once. The C-8 concentrations measured in all Letart Landfill one-mile radius samples were non detect or not quantifiable, except for one sample collected from a well used for drinking water that had a concentration of 0.139 pg/l and one sample collected from an unused well that had a concentration of 0.639 ug/l. The GIST required that the drinking water well with the C-8 concentration of 0.139 ug/l be resampled. The resident refused to have the well resampled.
Each location has thus been sampled a single time, and there (s no clear trend as to whether the concentrations of C-8 detected in groundwater are increasing or decreasing. Therefore, the GIST is recommending that DuPont collect yearly samples from the GERLACHIBA and the BRINKERA private water supply sources, contingent
upon permission of the well-owners, to evaluate the trend of C-8 concentrations in the private drinking water supplies. This sampling frequency should then be re-evaluated.
DRY RUN LANDFILL:
In April 2002, DuPont submitted a report to the GIST documenting the well survey and C-8 sampling results within the one-mile radius area around Dry Run Landfill. A total of 53 samples were collected from drinking water wells, non-drinking water wells, unused wells, springs, and cisterns. The C-8 concentrations from drinking water wells ranged from non-detect (<0.01 ug/l) to 0.422 ug/l. The highest concentration of C-8 from the category of non-drinking water wells and unused wells was 0.839 ug/l. Due to the low levels of C-8 found at the Dry Run Landfill, the private water supply survey was not extended by the GIST to a two-mile radial area-
In summary. C-8 was detected in 60% of the private water supply samples collected in the one-mile area. No private water samples in the one-mile radius exceeded the CATT-established C-8 drinking water screening level of 150 ug/l. The widespread distribution of C-8 in private water supply supplies within the one-mile radial area of Dry Run Landfill indicates that air emissions may be the primary migration pathway for C'8 from the Washington Works Facility. This assumption was made due to the lack of groundwater flow into these areas.

OHIO PRIVATE WATER SUPPLY SOURCES
As a result of C-8 being detected in the Little Hocking Public Water Supply in December 2001, Ohio EPA and DuPont, in addition to the work being performed under the West Virginia Consent Order, agreed to expand the private water supply sources water use survey and C-8 sampling into Ohio within a one-mite radial distance from the Washington Works Facility. Between March and June of 2002, Potesta Associates, Inc. personnel performed a door-to-door well survey and collected samples from private water supply wells, springs, and cisterns. The samples were collected following the protocols established by the multi-media Consent Order between DuPont, the WVDEP, and the WVDHHR-BPH. Representatives from the Washington County Health Department, Ohio Department of Health, or the Ohio EPA accompanied Potesta Associates, Inc.'s personnel during the initial door-to-door well survey.
In August 2002, DuPont submitted a report to the GIST and Ohio EPA documenting the well survey and C-8 sample results within the one-mile radial area. A total of 69 samples were collected from drinking water wells, non-drinking water wells, unused wells, springs, and cisterns. The C8 concentrations measured for drinking water wells ranged from non detect (<0.01 ug/l) to 8.59 ug/l, while a single spring used for drinking water was 1.29 ug/l. The highest concentration of C-8 from the category of non-drinking water wells and unused wells was 16.9 ug/l. C-8 was detected in all the springs and cisterns sampled within the one-mile radius, including a concentration of 23.6 ug/l in a spring used for livestock. Overall, a total of nine samples collected in the one-mile radius had concentrations of C-8 above 10 ug/l. Because some of these higher concentrations of C-8 were detected at the outer limit of the one-mile radius, DuPont agreed to expand the sampling effort in Ohio to two miles from. the Washington Works Facility.
The private water supply survey and C<-8 sampling within the one- to two-mile radius of the facility were completed in September of 2002. The results were documented in a report submitted by DuPont to the GIST and Ohio EPA in December 2002. A total of 63 samples were collected and analyzed for C-8, including SO drinking water wells. The C-8 concentrations measured in drinking water wells ranged from non detect (<0.01 ug/l) to 6.5 ug/l. No cisterns and springs sampled in the two-mile radius were used for drinking water. The highest concentration of C-8 from non-drinking water wells or unused wells was 8.68 ug/l. One spring sampled for C-8 had a concentration of 3.02 ug/l. Overall, no concentrations of C-8 were detected above 10 ug/l within the one- to two-mile radius.
In summary, C-8 was detected in approximately 94% and 77% of the private water supply samples collected in the one- and two-mile areas, respectively. In general, the concentrations of C-8 are lower in the two-mile radius area as compared to the one-mile radius. Because measured concentrations in the two-mile radius indicated a decreasing trend in distance from the Washington Works Facility, the Ohio EPA and DuPont determined that additional sampling beyond the two-mile radius was not necessary. No private water supply samples in the one- or two-mile radius exceeded

* A negative stream mile value refers to a location upstream from the Washington Works Facility. A positive number refers to a location downstream from that facility.
** ND refers to a "Non Detect" concentration that is at or below the laboratory's minimum detection limit. The listed concentration can vary by instrument and time; however, the Non Detect concentration
for C-8 for this period of time is 0.01 ug/l. *** NQ refers to "Not Quantifiable." It Is a concentration that is below the laboratory's minimum detection
limit and is therefore below the level of quantification. The Not Quantifiable concentration for C-&
for this period of time is 0.05 ug/l.
Upon completion of the C-8 Assessment of Toxicity Team (CATT) study establishing a drinking water screening level of 150 ug/l for C-8, sampling efforts were discontinued for General Electric, Parkersburg Water Department, Blennerhassett Island State Park, Bellville Hydro Electric Recreation Plant. Ravenswood Municipal,
Mason County PSD--Letart, Racine Locks and Dam, and New Haven Water Department based on the measured low concentrations. Sampling was continued at the DuPont Washington Works Facility and Lubeck PSD on a quarterly basis to
continue to evaluate trends in C-8 concentrations.
CONCI.USION$:
The completion of the groundwater studies and sampling efforts performed as a part of the C-8 GIST study have resulted in the following conclusions regarding the source of C-8 in the West Virginia PWSSs:
* Parkersburg Water Department and Blennerhassett Island State Park: It is believed that the C-8 levels are transported from the DuPont Washington Works Facility via air emissions. Please note that C-8 transported in air emissions a'nd deposited on surfaces is likely to be mobilized by precipitation and migrate via water transport to surface and/or groundwater.
* DuPont Washington PSD: It is believed that the C-8 levels are transported via air emissions, and from groundwater migration from C-8-containing materials in the on-site Solid Waste Management Units at the Washington Works Facility.
General Electric: It is believed that the C-8 levels are transported from the DuPont Washington Works Facility via air emissions associated with the infiltration of precipitation or from production-well-induced recharge from the Ohio River impacted with wastewater discharges from the DuPont Washington Works Facility.
* Lubeck PSD: It is believed that the C-8 levels are associated with pumping-induced recharge of surface water from the DuPont Washington Works Facility's wastewater discharges to the Ohio River and possibly via air deposition.
Division of Water and Waste Management
Final C-8 GIST Report _
page24
Mason County PSD--Letart: It is believed that the C-8 levels are derived from pumplng-induced recharge of surface water from DuPont Washington Works Facility's wastewater discharges to the Ohio River,
Racine Locks and Dam: It is believed that the 08 levels are derived by pumping-
induced recharge of surface water from the DuPont Washington Works Facility and/or the Letart Landfill leachate discharges to the Ohio River.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
Considering this data, it is the GIST'S recommendation that DuPont continue the following for the PWSSs:
Lubeck PSD, DuPont Washington Works Facility, and General Electric: Quarterly sampling of wells for two years to ensure that C-8 levels are being maintained or reduced. Conduct a limited field investigation to determine the extent and concentration of C-8 in soil at the Lubeck PSD in the vicinity of their production wells. When the soil sample results are available and the data is evaluated, the GIST will determine what additional sampling activities are necessary to complete the investigation. DuPont will submit a report documenting the sampling investigation and the C-8 results to the GIST when the results are finalized. After two years, the sampling program will be re-evaluated.
Blennerhassett Island State Park and Mason County PSD--Letart: Annual sampling for a two-year period to ensure C-8 levels are being maintained or reduced. After two years, the sampling program will be re-evaluated.
Racine Lock and Dam: Annual sampling for a two-year period to evaluate levels of C-8 due to the upstream proximity of the Letart Landfill, and to ensure that C-8 levels are being maintained or reduced. After two years, the sampling program will be reevaluated.
Parkersburg Water Department, Bellville Hydro Electric Recreation Plant, Ravenswood Municipal Water Works, and New Haven Water Department: No further action is deemed necessary at this time.

SURFACE WATER AND GROUNDWATER MONITORING
page 30
It should be noted that site location maps, top-of-groundwater maps, and site geological maps are located in Appendix A, and that a complete set of groundwater data (in both table and graph form) is located in Appendix B. These data included with this final GIST report ends with the March 2003 sampling. The hydrological information
is from the February 2003 Summary Report.
It should also be noted that the data displayed here (both historical and recent) have been generated using several different analytical methods. Prior to .1991, DuPont performed the C-8 analysis at the DuPont Experimental Station in Wilmington, Delaware. In 1991, when the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) Verification Investigation was conducted at the Washington Works plant, the analysis was contracted to the CHzMHill Laboratory in Montgomery, Alabama. Both of these laboratories used.a Gas Chromatography-Electron Capture Detected-based analytical methods with detection limits for C-8 that ranged from 0.1 to 1.0 ug/l. CH;,MHill conducted the C-8 analysis into the fall of 1998 when the laboratory ceased operation. At that time, the analytical work was transferred to Lancaster Laboratories, in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. DuPont continued to use this facility until October 2001, when development and testing was completed on a new analytical method utilized by Exygen Research, Inc., located in State College. Pennsylvania. This method uses a Liquid Chromatography-Tandem Mass Spectrometry. DuPont adopted the regular use
of this method in November of 2001.
HISTORICAL WORK:
Before any assessment could be made of the groundwater and surface water at the four DuPont locations, a summary of the historical data was compiled. This was submitted by DuPont in January of 2002 in the document, Compilation of Historical C-8 Data, DuPont Washington Works Facility, Main Plant, and Landfills. This report included a brief historical, geological, and hydrogeological overview of the four sites (Washington Works Facility, Local Landfill, Dry Run Landfill, and Letart Landfill), and identified three data gaps: the need for additional groundwater monitoring wells, continued refinement of the groundwater model at the main plant, and the need to evaluate the Ohio River surface water.
This report also included location maps for the four sites, multiple geological cross-sections, four top-of-groundwater maps for each facility, and construction details for the groundwater monitoring wells. Many of the locations were sampled only once; however, samples had been collected from other locations on as many as 17 occasions. The information submitted on the four sites' historical sampling locations was as follows:

still active and operates under WV-NPDES Permit No. WV0076244. The upper
(southeastern) portion of the landfill is closed and covered with a soil and vegetative cover. The lower (northwestern) portion also closed and is covered by an engineeredlandfillcap.
The Dry Run Landfill is about 17 acres in size, and is approximately 690 feet wide and 1500 feet long, with an elevation rise of about 250 feet. It is oriented in a southeast and northwest direction, and is constructed in an old, v-shaped valley above Dry Run. Physically, the site is a long grassy slope of fill material surrounded (and situated on) the small valley's native rock and soil. The site borders no highways. residential, or industrial areas. In the late 1980s, waste sludge materials from an anaerobic digestion pond (from the main plant) was placed in the upper, southeastern
side of the landfill.
Geologically, the bedrock beneath the landfill is comprised of individual layers of
shale, silty clay, and sandstone and siltstone. Within this sequence the three dominant aquifers are nearly continuous sandstone and siltstone. These have been labeled by DuPont--beginning with the October 2002 groundwater monitoring report--as Zone A, Zone B, and Zone C, with Zone C being the deepest. Zone B is considered the main groundwater zone, and has eleven wells screened through it--five of these wells are newly constructed and have only been sampled on one occasion. Zone A has three wells screened within it, and Zone C has only one well.
The Zone A groundwater flows to the west-northwest, and has a gradient of 0.055 vertical feet per horizontal foot. The zone varies in depth between zero (to the northwest) and 200 feet deep (to the southeast). It is between 25 and 35 feet thick. The C-8 plume, based on three wells, appears to be moving to the west-northwest and
down the axis of Dry Run.
Of the three Zone A groundwater monitoring wells, one--located northeast of the Dry Run Valley--has consistently contained concentrations below 1 ug/l. A second well. located to the southwest of the valley, contains concentrations of between 0.2 and 5 pg/l. The third well, DRMW-13, has contained the highest concentrations of C-8, ranging from 3.6 to 20.9 ug/l. This well is located in the middle of Zone A and the Dry
Run valley.
The Zone B groundwater flow appears to be moving in an arc that varies between a northwestern direction in the upper southeastern portion of the site, and in a western direction in the lower western part of the site. The zone is about ten feet thick with a gradient between 0.006 and 0.023 vertical feet per horizontal foot. Zone B varies in depth from between 220 feet deep under the southeastern portion of the site to just a few feet below the surface at the toe of the landfill. It may be breached by the Dry Run surface stream northwest of the landfill. Alt of the wells surrounding Zone B were sampled in October 2002. Only six wells in the down-gradient western part of the landfill contained detectable concentrations of C-8, The well which consistently contains the highest concentrations of C-8 is well DRMW-13A, located directly in the
Dry Run Valley and is adjacent to well DRMW-13. The C-8 concentration in well
Division of Water and Waste Management
Final C-8 GIST Report
page 34
DRMW-13A is less than in well DRMW-13; however, it does seem to indicate that Zone B's plume is also moving directly down the Dry Run valley.
As stated previously. Zone C is the deepest of the three groundwater zones. This zone is only penetrated by one groundwater monitoring well, DRMW-21B. Zone C is located approximately 120 feet below the Dry Run valley, and it has not been determined if it extends to the southeast and under the landfill. Zone C is at least 45
feet thick, and may be confined, as the groundwater surface in the well extended above the well's screen and the top of the sandstone-siltstone layer in the October 2002 sampling. Without additional wells penetrating Zone C, it is impossible at this time to determine the zone's extent or the groundwater flow direction and gradient. Well DRMW-21B contained no detectable concentrations of C-8 on the two occasions it was
sampled, so it is presumed at this time that there is no C-8 in Zone C.
It is difficult to make any kind of conclusions regarding the surface water at the Dry Run Landfill because many of the sampling locations have been consistently dry during much of 2002. It is also difficult to make statements regarding the
concentrations of C-8 found to date because these concentrations vary so much from sample location to sample location. The highest.concentration of C-8 found at the surface sampling points is the Dry Run leachate location, where the concentrations of C-8 has ranged between 109 and 704 pg/l since December of 2001. The leachate is collected and hauled to the Washington Works Facility's treatment system, and does
not discharge into Dry Run.

page 36
Physically, the Letart Landfill is tear-shaped. It is approximately 1,400 feet long,
and tapers in width from a maximum of 850 feet along its northern edge to a narrow point at the Ohio River. The elevation difference between the wider, higher northern boundary and the lowest elevation point near the Ohio River, is about 140 feet. The
landfill itself is covered with grass. There are no highways, residents, or businesses adjacent to the landfill; however, U.S. Route 33 parallels Brinker Run, which is located about 700 feet to the west. This is a rural part of West Virginia, and there are no residents and businesses along this section of the highway.
Geologically, the bedrock beneath the landfill is comprised of individual layers of
shale, silty clay, and sandstone and siltstone. There are, depending on how and where they are counted, between four and six aquifers at this site, which have been labeled by DuPont as Zone A, Zone B, Zone C, Zone D, Zone E, and Zone P. Zone A is the shallowest of these aquifers, and is monitored by three groundwater monitoring wells.
Zone B contains no wells, and Zone C contains only one well. Zone D-E contains five groundwater monitoring wells, and Zone F, the deepest and dominant aquifer at this site, has nine wells screened through it.
Groundwater Zone A is exposed near the surface, and varies between 25 and 60 feet thick. It is continuous in nature, but apparently contains interbedded discontinuous shale, sandstone, and siltstone lens.
There are only three wells, screened in Zone A. These wells are all located relatively close together and more-or-less in a straight line along the northwestern edge of the landfill; Given these limitations, the October 2002 groundwater sampling gave
the appearance of a north groundwater flow and a plume that centered on well LMV\M,
the central-most of the three wells.
Of the three Zone A wells, LMW-1 has the highest concentrations. These concentrations have varied since April 1996 between 1,700 and 30,500 ug/l. Well LMW-8 has the next-highest concentrations, and these concentrations have varied between 280 and 4,020 ug/l. Well LMW-7 has displayed the least concentrations of C8 in these wells since October 1999 between 158 and 567 ug/l.
There are no wells screened through Zone B. However, judging from the crosssection produced when the deeper wells were drilled, this zone reaches its maximum thickness of more than 70 feet at the northern-most tip of the landfill, where it is combined with Zone C. Zone B pinches out (disappears) completely as one moves down the landfill toward the river,
Zone C appears to be continuous across the site. It is approximately 15 to 25 feet thick under the main and southern portions of the landfill, and combines with Zone B in the northern part of the site. Only one well is screened through Zone C, so no assessment of a plume or groundwater flow and direction can be made. This well,
Division of Water and Waste Management
Final C-g GIST Reiaort
page 37
LMW-3, is located near the very toe of the landfill and in close proximity to the Ohio River. This well had a concentration of 2,270 ug/l C-8 in May 2002.
Zone D-E is the most complex of the Letart water-bearing zones. These zones appear to be combined in the southern, central, and northern portions of the site. They are separated by a shale layer in the western and possibly the central portion of the landfill. It is also possible that Zone D may be completely missing in the northern and
northeastern portions of the site. The thickness of this zone can range between 10 and 40 feet. Zone D-E, as mapped by DuPont in October 2002, has a gradient of 0.026 vertical feet per horizontal foot with a groundwater flow direction to the south-southwest.
There are five groundwater monitoring wells screened through Zone D-E, Most of these wells are located near the southern toe of the landfill: Of these five wells, two were only recently installed, and long-term data exists for three of the wells. LMW-4 has consistently contained the highest concentrations of C-8. These concentrations
have ranged from 172 to 2,840 ug/l.
All five of the Zone D-E groundwater monitoring wells sampled in October of 2002 indicate high C-8 concentrations under the .main part of the landfill, with a plume flowing due south and through LMW-4. Two wells, located just east of LMW-4
contained much lower concentrations of C-8.
As previously stated, groundwater Zone F is believed to be the dominate aquifer at the Letart Landfill. This zone is the deepest of the six aquifers. It is continuous across the site ranging from 30 to 70 feet thick. The groundwater within the zone flows to the south-southeast. This zone has a gradient of between 0.030 to 0.057 vertical
feet per horizontal foot.
There are nine groundwater monitoring wells screened through Zone F positioned all around the landfill. Six of these were sampled prior to October 2002, and seven were sampled in October of 2002. These wells project a possible C-8 plume
moving south down the center of the landfill. The lowest concentrations are to the west of the landfill, where there is one concentration of 105 ug/l in well LMW-14B. The highest C-8 concentration is at the very toe of the landfill at well LMW-5B, which has consistently contained high concentrations since it was installed more than a decade ago. Since July of 1999, these concentrations have ranged between 592 and 2,280
pg/l.
Zone F well LMW-2A contains high concentrations of C-8 that have varied
between 242 and 913 pg/l since September of 1994. In addition, this well is located on the extreme northern edge of the landfill, away from the anticipated plume direction. Welt LMW-12, drilled just to the west of LMW-2A, was dry during the October 2002 sampling event. These two wells should be monitored closely to determine groundwater flow direction and if there is a plume moving off the site to the north. It should also be noted that there is a private water source (GERLACHIBA) north of the
Letart Landfill where a small concentration of C-8 was found-
Division of Water and Waste Management
Final C-8 GIST Report
page 38
It should be noted that, due to the installation of the synthetic cap, stormwater contribution to the groundwater flow has been lessened under the landfill. It is probable
that the contribution of C-8 to this flow has remained stable. Less groundwater volume combined with a steady contribution of C-8 will equal a higher concentration of C-8 in the groundwater. This scenario appears to have occurred at the Letart Landfill. The
site should be monitored closely to ascertain trends in C-8 concentrations.
The surface water at the Letart Landfill has been sampled for C-8 at six locations. The data for some of these points is very intermittent. While most of these concentrations are very low, C-8 has been found at the two Brinker Run sampling locations. The two highest concentrations were found at the southern toe of the landfill,
at Outlet 002 (the Leachate Basin) and the Cap Runoff location, both of which indicate
increasing concentrations of C-8. Outlet 002 and the Cap Runoff have had concentrations as high as 3,240 and 415.6 ug/l, respectively.

V. FINDINGS OF FACT.
C8 is a chemical substance which has no established state or federal effluent or
1. emission standards.
C8 is a perfluorinatedsurfactant manufactured by the 3M Company and others.
2.
Since the early 1950's C8 has been used by DuPont in its fluoropolynier-related manufacturing processes at its Washington Works facility, located in Wood County, West Virginia.
3.
Residues containing C8 from fluoropolymer manufacturing processes at
Washington Works are or have been released to the air, discharged to the Ohio River, disposed of
at the Facilities, and otherwise shipped off-site for destruction and/or disposal. DuPont also
captures for recycle a significant portion of used C8.
4.
No permits issued to DuPont authorizing releases of pollutants to the environment
contain specific limitations on the amount ofC8 that may be released to the environment.
However, C8 releases are addressed more generally in WVDEP Division of Air Quality permits
as paniculate matter, PM]O (particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter less than or equal to
10 microns), or as a volatile organic compound.
5.
Since as early as 1990, DuPont has performed regular, voluntary water sampling
to detect the presence and level ofC8 in and around certain of its Facilities in West Virginia and
has reported the results of this sampling to various government agencies. Currently, DuPont also
samples and reports C8 concentrations in water as required by permits issued by WVDEP and
EPA.
6.
As a result ofDuPont's sampling, C8 has been detected in varying concentrations
in and around certain of its Facilities in West Virginia, including private drinking water wells and
public water supplies.
7.
Analyses of water samples have reported levels ofC8 in the Lubeck Public
Service District ("LPSD") drinking water supply.
8.
DuPont, by and through its use of C8 in the fluoropolymer manufacturing process,
is the likely source of C8 presence in and around certain of its Facilities in West Virginia.
9.
Along with environmental sampling for C8, DuPont has performed and
participated in multiple studies examining the potential effects ofC8 exposure on human health
and the environment.
10. Studies performed by DuPont and 3M have determined that C8 in sufficient doses, i.e., considering both amount and duration of exposure, is toxic to animals through ingestion, inhalation and dermal contact. Studies have also found that C8 is persistent in humans
and the environment.
11. Although DuPont has collected a large amount of data on the presence of C8 in the environment, the Agencies believe that additional information will assist them in delineating the extent and concentrations of C8 in the environment at or near the Facilities. Available data collected by DuPont indicates that C8 is present in the surface and groundwater at the Letart and
Dry Run Landfills and at or near the Washington Works facility, 12. WVDEP and WVDHHR-BPH have determined that it is desirable to ascertain the
source of drinking water for persons potentially exposed to C8 in groundwater or surface waters in the area of the Facilities.
13. EPA, WVDEP, and WVDHHR-BPH, in consultation and cooperation with one
another, have requested, and DuPont has submitted, information and documents relating to the detection and presence ofC8 in and around the Facilities and documents with respect to the human health studies being performed related to C8 exposure.
14. Based upon information submitted by DuPont and reviewed to date by EPA,
WVDEP, and WVDHHR-BgrPouHn,dthaendAgseunrfcaicees wbeatlieervsentohwat caodndtiatiionninagl dCa8tahwavoeualdcaosmsipslteitne their eevxaplousautiroenpaotfhwwhaeythtoerhtuhme ans and whether persons in and around the Facilities are at risk of
adverse health effects from C8 exposure.
15. There have been no independent governmental or non-industrial studies
performed on the human health effects ofC8 exposure for the purpose of establishing an
exposure standard for C8 applicable to the general public.
16. The Agencies have concluded that full site and health assessments are necessary
to ascertain the extent and level ofC8 concentrations in the environment and to assist them in
determining whether C8 presents any possible danger to the public. DuPont has agreed to participate and assist in this effort.
17. The fluoropolymers industry has committed to EPA to reduce total actual C8
emissions for either the year 1999 or the year 2000 by 50 percent within three to five years of
each company's commitment date. DuPont committed to this goal in 2000.
18. DuPont installed, in March 2001, a filter and carbon treatment system at its
Washington Works facility that is demonstrating removal efficiency of 90-95% of the C8 in its
major CS-containing wastewater stream,

GIST Team Objectives and Efforts
The primary objective of the GIST is to efficiently review and direct groundwater and surface water monitoring and investigation activities as prescribed in the Consent Order and in this Attachment. The GIST will utilise a phased approach and employ rapid team decision making toward meeting the requirements in an efficient and timely manner. Unless otherwise directed by the GIST, the tasks outlined below shall be performed by DuPont or its representatives.
The GIST will issue a final report(s) with findings and conclusions regarding groundwater quality in and around the Facilities, and the extent of groundwater contamination in and around the Facilities, The GIST final report shall further make recommendations regarding the need for any'further work or actions that need to be taken to assure protection of groundwater quality and human health into the future.
The tasks set forth below and in the Consent Order are the minimum tasks to be performed by DuPont and the GIST pursuant to the Consent Order. Additional tasks may be necessary to assure the goals [full groundwater assessment and C8 impact, plume identification, and receptor identification] of the GIST and the Consent Order are met. Those tasks shall be agreed upon by the GIST.
Key Tasks of GIST
Task A: Groundwater Use and Well Survey/Groundwater Monitoring
Objectives: Conduct a distance-phased groundwater well and water use survey within a 1-mile (and possibly 2 and 3-mile) radial distance or directionally focused distance of the Washington Works and Local, Letart, and Dry Run Landfills.'
Summary: The phased approach to the water and groundwater well use survey will allow the GIST to focus efforts along established C8 impact transport pathways and cease activities in directions where impacts are not present or where there are minimal concentrations. Data results tables will be generated in a timely manner to
allow the GIST to meet, evaluate the data, and determine the next course of action. The GIST will determine when the final groundwater well use survey shall be
released,
DuPont agrees to perform, under the supervision of the GIST and through an agreed-to third party, a groundwater use and well survey identifying and sampling all groundwater wells within a 1-mile radius of the three landfills set forth above and the Washington Works facility. The phased approach may be amended by the GIST should field conditions require, e.g., lack of sampling wells in the 1-mile radius, lack of quality sampling points within the 1-mile radius.
Sampling shall be performed with the specific purpose of finding and measuring the C8 concentration in water. Should concentrations ofC8 found in groundwater wells exceed 1 pg/1 within the 1-mile radius, the GIST will determine
1
The water use survey should be in substantially the same format as Attachment B.
A-2
whether to expand the well survey to a 2-mile radius, a 3-mile radius, or in a specific direction only. Drinking water wells that measure above 1 ug/1 shall be re-sampled at a frequency to be determined by the GIST.
Note: The level of 1 ug/1 is utilized in this Consent Order for monitoring
purposes only and not as a benchmark for determining risk and this level may be
adjusted as determined the GIST in furtherance of the tasks and objectives set forth in
this Attachment.
* Timing: The initial well survey within a 1-mile radius of the Facilities will be conducted within 60 days of the Consent Order's Effective Date. Additional well survey activities will be conducted on a schedule to be determined by the GIST.
Task B: Assessment ofExistiug.Groundwater and Surface Water Monitoring Data
Objectives: Develop and implement a monitoring plan that determines the presence
and extent ofC8 in drinking water, groundwater, and surface water in and around, the Washington Works facility and Local, Letart, and Dry Run Landfills and provide a compilation of all available groundwater/surface water monitoring and hydrogeologic characterization data for each facility, as reflected in Table A-l. * Summary: The GIST will be tasked with an expedited evaluation of existing historical data and hydrogeologic information in order to prioritize the initial scope of work for
continuing groundwater monitoring and any additional investigation activities (e.g., monitoring well installations) required under plume identification. DuPont shall provide all historical data and hydrogeologic information it may have related to the Facilities.
Timing: Within 30 days of the completion of Task A, the GIST will review all the C8 analytical and facility hydrogeologic information to determine the scope of work for groundwater monitoring and additional investigation. The GISTwill then establish a schedule for those activities. It is anticipated that a summary of all historical information for each facility will be submitted to GIST within 60 days of the Consent
Order* s effective date.
Task C: Plume Identification/Groundwater Assessment
* Objective: Determine the vertical and horizontal extent of any and all C8 impacted groundwater exceeding 1 ug/1 or as directed by the GIST, which may determine a lower threshold than 1 ug/1. This task shall also include an assessment ofC8 impacted groundwater at Letart Landfill and its impact on the Ohio River and public water supplies along the river.
* Summary: The GIST shall first review historical data and results of Task A to determine an appropriate scope of work. Activities should be prioritized to address groundwater plumes contributing to or with the potential to flow toward off-site receptors, with emphasis on those areas where groundwater is used as a drinking
water source.
A-3
Upon completion of investigation activities, DuPont shall provide the GIST with predicted groundwater flow and contaminant transport models to assess future plume
migration. Timing: Upon

Tasks of CAT Team
The tasks to be performed by the CAT Team are described briefly in Table 1, and in more detail below. These tasks are discussed below within the context of a Scope of Work for both Dr. Becker and for TERA as well.
Tasks of the CAT Team shall be organized into three phases. Phase I includes those tasks necessary to prepare for and hold the first public meeting. In Phase n, TERA
shall conduct such scientific tasks as: reviewing available toxicity and epidemiological
studies; developing Provisional Reference Doses and Screening Levels for protection of
human health; evaluating existing information relative to ecological health; and conducting one general risk assessment involving comparisons of exposure concentrations to Screening Levels, for the three landfills and the Washington Works Plant, and the Lubeck Public Service District. TERA shall prepare a report on their
findings. Phase III includes those tasks necessary to prepare for and hold the second public meeting. The results of the C8 groundwater analysis and risk assessment shall be
presented in the second public meeting.
No communication between Dupont representatives and NICS, Dr. Becker, or TERA shall be permitted without the participation of Dr. Staats. All information will be provided to Dr. Becker and TERA by WVDEP; thus, all information contributed to the effort by Dupont shall be sent in triplicate to Dr. Staats for forwarding to Dr. Becker and TERA.
Phase I TASK A-l: First Public Meeting
Two public meetings are anticipated for this project. The First Public Meeting
shall occur in Phase I for the purposes of introducing the CAT Team and other involved parties to the public; relating historical information on previous concentrations ofC8 in Lubeck Public Service District water supply, informing the citizens of the ensuing activities; and inviting the public to participate by cooperating with sampling and survey efforts in the Groundwater C8 Analysis and Well Use Survey. In order to prepare for the
C-3
First Public Meeting, CAT Team members shall familiarize themselves with the available lexicological information concerning C8.
A CAT Team meeting shall be held Immediately prior to the first public meeting to: (1) conduct a site visit to the three landfills and the Washington Works Plant, and surrounding residential areas; (2) discuss the toxicity ofC8 and other pertinent data; (3) prepare an agenda for the public meeting; (4) coordinate and prepare for the public meeting. Finally, the First Public Meeting will be held and public questions and comments will be recorded by WVDEP.

shall develop Provisional Reference Doses for C8 for the oral, inhalation, and dermal (if possible) routes of exposure. Then TERA shall calculate Screening Levels for water, soil and air based on the risk factors they have estimated. TERA shall perform one general risk assessment involving comparison of exposure concentrations to Screening Levels for
the three landfills and the Washington Works Plant, and the Lubeck Public Service District water supply, that focuses on current risk to human health, including workers and
residents. This risk assessment shall include: (1) identification of reasonably anticipated land use, surface water and groundwater use; (2) identification of receptors; (3) identification of exposure pathways; (4) identification of exposure concentrations; and (5) comparison of exposure concentrations to appropriate Screening Levels. TERA shall
utilize data obtained from the other efforts discussed above such as air modeling; groundwater C8 concentrations in residential and public wells; residential groundwater well use survey; the USEPA's Draft Hazard Assessment; and ATSDR's Health
Consultation (if available). TERA also shall review available information to determine
whether sufficient studies have been performed and data have been collected to develop
screening criteria for protection of ecological health, particularly aquatic life. TERA shall prepare a draft and a final document that discusses the results of their efforts and summarizes the data utilized from other efforts. As the tasks of the CAT Team and other
involved parties' progress, data gaps and research recommendations may become
evident. These shall be included in TERA's report as suggestions for further research to elucidate the toxicity ofC8. Phase III Second Public Meetinp
The purpose of the Second Public Meeting is to present to the citizenry the result$ of the efforts of the GIST and CAT Teams including C8 concentrations in groundwater from residential wells and public wells the screening levels and the general risk assessment. Air modeling results of the efforts ofWVDEP and Dupont will be discussed also. The WVDEP will address any further actions that may be necessary.
